Radio radio radio_t pradio

A Minecraft Fabric mod that adds functional radio transmitters, receivers, and a portable radio for wireless audio broadcasting via Simple Voice Chat.

Features

  • Radio Transmitter — broadcast microphone audio or jukebox music wirelessly over configurable frequencies
  • Radio Receiver — receive radio transmissions and play them out loud
  • Portable Radio — handheld receiver that plays audio directly to you
  • FM Frequency System — 88.0–108.0 MHz with signal quality based on frequency alignment, distance, and signal strength
  • Antenna Requirement — transmitters need lightning rods stacked above them; more antennas = better range and signal
  • Noise & Interference — static noise when out of range, interference from competing transmitters on nearby frequencies, smooth transitions
  • Jukebox Broadcast — captures audio from nearby jukeboxes and transmits it through the radio
  • Audio Player Support — optional AudioPlayer mod integration for custom music discs
  • Dual Audio Sources — microphone and disc inputs with independent volume controls
  • Capture Radius — configure how far the transmitter listens for nearby players (microphone) and jukeboxes (discs)
  • Note Particles — receivers show note particles when playing a clean signal
  • VU Meter — visual audio level indicators in the GUI
  • Separate Volume Categories — independent volume sliders for radio and portable radio in Simple Voice Chat

Usage

Radio Transmitter radio_t

  1. Craft and place a Radio Transmitter
  2. Stack lightning rods above it (continuous column) — more rods = better signal
  3. Right-click to open the GUI
  4. Set frequency (88.0–108.0 MHz), range (50–5000), signal strength (1+)
  5. Toggle microphone and/or disc mode with independent volume sliders
  6. Set capture radius (3–50 blocks) — how far it listens for players/jukeboxes
  7. Speak nearby (within capture radius) while the transmitter is powered to broadcast

Radio Receiver radio

  1. Craft and place a Radio Receiver nearby
  2. Right-click to open the GUI
  3. Set frequency to match a transmitter, adjust volume and distance (5–50 blocks)
  4. Powered receivers automatically play any signal on their frequency within range

Portable Radio pradio

  1. Craft a Portable Radio
  2. Right-click to toggle power ON/OFF
  3. Shift + right-click to open the GUI and set frequency and volume

Frequencies & Signal

  • Range: 88.0 – 108.0 MHz (FM broadcast band)
  • Matching transmitters and receivers on the same frequency = clean signal
  • Nearby frequencies produce interference noise proportional to the difference
  • Signal quality depends on: frequency match, distance, transmitter signal strength, and competing transmitters
